The air in the grand hall is thick with festive cheer and the murmur of the crowd. Among the sea of faces, James stands out, his dark blonde hair catching the light, turquoise eyes crinkling with amusement as he chats with Savannah, Isla, and Mia.

He extends a hand, the gesture warm yet formal. "Happy Christmas," James says, his voice calm and steady.
